Bride bottom mount rail sits up a little higher than stock. Could be worse though. If you're much over 6 foot you wont like it.
@ the guy on the last page asking about rail/brackets.

Bride Gias ain't all that. I sat in one and it was "meh," it wasn't snug at all. Big deal on the Maziora paint. Why is it so cool, because it's "jdm tyte yo?" Looks nice but it's purely aesthetic. My Recaro SPG feels way better because it's much more snug. If you like how it feels more power to you.

You have to remember, I'm not some young, scrawny little punk... I'm a man So they fit me VERY snug. I do find it funny how people argue on how each seat fits, holds, feels etc, etc.... it all depends on the body type sitting in it. I wouldn't even be able to comfortably sit in a standard Bride bucket.

Yeah I've only tried them in a s14 so I can't speak for other chassis but they were not low enough in my s chassis. So I sold them to another member on here.

Are there any 'bare' low-profile Nardi pattern hubs that come in black?
Exactly the same as this Circuit Sports hub, but in a completely different colour.



Generally, are the 'boots' on this style of hub removable?
I enjoy that this one is black underneath.

The boot on my WorksBell hub comes right off. It is just friction fit along the edge closest the driver

I have that circuit sports hub and I kinda really don't like how shiny it is. I'm thinking about painting it with wrinkle black paint. Good idea? y/n?

Got this for sale for any of ya'll.

http://zilvia.net/f/sale-items/43140...ive-wheel.html


Also, I'm just using an NRG short hub. It's black, and looks really decent.

Sold my shitty high Buddy Club rails yesterday in favor of the Bride FG rails I picked up yesterday as well. Vios III + BC rails = too high... and I'm only 5'9".

Cool beans. For some reason I thought NRG only made quick-releases.
I believe I will go with this one.
